In order to build the "switch/elan" plugin for SLURM, you will need
the <b>qsnetlibs</b> development libraries from
<a href="http://www.quadrics.com">Quadrics</a>. The Elan
plugin also requires the <b>libelanhosts</b> library and
a corresponding /etc/elanhosts configuration file, used to map
hostnames to Elan IDs. The libelanhosts source is available from

<li> <b>QsNet</b> support in the form of the switch/elan plugin requires
that the qsnetlibs package (from Quadrics) be installed along
with its development counterpart (i.e. the qsnetheaders
package.) The switch/elan plugin also requires the
presence of the libelanosts library and /etc/elanhosts
configuration file. (See elanhosts(5) man page in that
package for more details). Define the nodes in the SLURM
configuration file <i>slurm.conf</i> in the same order as
defined in the <i>elanhosts</i> configuration file so that
node allocation for jobs can be performed so as to optimize
their performance. We highly recommend assigning the nodes
a numeric suffix equal to its Elan address for ease of
administration and because the Elan driver does not seem
to function otherwise
(e.g. /etc/elanhosts to contain two lines of this sort:<br>
eip [0-15] linux[0-15]<br>
eth [0-15] linux[0-15]<br>
for fifteen nodes with a prefix of &quot;linux&quot; and
numeric suffix between zero and 15). Finally, the
&quot;ptrack&quot; kernel patch is required for process
tracking.
